it's written by myself it's called Show pain [Applause] [Music] been a songwriter for most of my life I suppose I only recently started to actually perform music it'd be cool to see something completely different you know like a songwriter not a rap early that jumps around the stage but someone who can you can listen to my songs and they'd be like right there's a lot of power here there's a lot of passion and That's what I want to show people about like it's not just all an image [Music] today I will be performing my own
original song called Chopin it is about depression and anxiety it is written from my own experiences growing up wasn't the easiest and another was addicted to drugs for quite some time bad experiences shaped me and defined me being homeless for years there's a big big issue it was just Mostly a b b's hostile to hostile packs anything at all yeah it was it was hard it was hard writing for me was an escape from me because if I didn't have Ryan I probably wouldn't be here today and that's that's just being true I want other
people to hear the song and maybe I could be a voice for people who are afraid to speak up my only advice anybody out there is don't try and be someone or not be Yourself and just talk to people it works [Applause] [Music] to myself every day that I'm okay hope to smile on my face doesn't show pain it doesn't show pain this is for the ones who were Brave the ones who gave up but you chose to stay I'm done with feeling fed up man I tried to keep your head up in my darkest
times it's my depression developed and then I Wanted to die I wanted to escape wipe the tears from my face and I'll just run away embedded in my mind when my fears Run Deep I might be strong I got memories of being weak I say that it's nothing and it doesn't mean a lot I say I'm okay when you know I'm clearly not I'm giving you a warning I'm sick of the Performing I cry at night man just a smile in the morning depressed sad lonely and Confused angry and I'm mad but I must have
all bruised that's what My depression is terrified to always live every time I break down they're coming to build another Bridge [Applause] it doesn't show pain hey I tell myself every day that I'm okay put a smile on my face doesn't show pain it doesn't show pain foreign you're young and you shouldn't be confused you hate the fact is that You're always in this mood please dude someone needs you and if you open your eyes let them see you but now you're putting in the effort but you should have known better smile on my face

a little intimidating but folks he's just like the rest of us all right he puts his pants on well actually his assistant puts his pants on one leg at a time that wasn't Simon's cup of tea and That's okay as a pair of pants I spend a lot of time around old farts [Applause] but Simon you've been a fantastic sport please give it up for Simon everybody where do you think he's thinking of and vice versa what do you think Howie is thinking of one word and when I count to three you're gonna say that
